Abstract

Until now strategic leadership literature has not been seriously taking into account disruptive and fast moving environments in defining strategic leadership. Moreover, the strategic leadership literature has only been able to establish a list of generic roles that strategic leaders must play without examining in detail these roles. And finally, this literature is mainly based on quantitative data gathered retrospectively. In order to fill these major gaps in the strategic leadership literature, the paper first provides a framework for studying the key social competences and skills of leaders in today's highly risky and ambiguous situations. Second, it proposes an innovative methodology in order to study strategic leadership in practice by following an international team of mountain climbers in their project of crossing the Cordillera Darwin, in Tierra del Fuego (Patagonia).
